HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 Greatness Refined, Lightweight Wired Over Ear Headset with mic, Swivel-to-Mute Function, 50mm Drivers, PC Compatible - Black (519T1AA)

Warning: Long review.The HyperX Cloud Stinger 2 is an awesome gaming headset for playing competitive esport games like Counter Strike, Valorant or Call of Duty the headset excels in providing precise and important information in the game like from where the grenade was thrown or how much far the footsteps are coming from and how loud they are, as a budget gaming headset under 5000 rupees price they are really good.It’s a really great gaming headset overall and an excellent product from an highly reputed gaming brand HyperX, the quality of the overall headset is very solid and premium the headset works on every gaming platform like PC, Xbox, PS5.The headphone is very comfortable out of the box but you can also buy some nice Wicked Cushions or Brainwavz ear pads and replace them with the stock ear pads provided by HyperX.The headset comes with a DTS Surround sound code, in multiplayer gaming I do not recommend anyone use surround sound as the sound engine of games are really good and the surround sound will just muffle the sounds and make it harder to hear information, THOUGH in single player games surround sound might make better experience.The microphone is also really good in quality and your communications will be delivered to everyone clearly, though every headphone mic has noise compression because of noise cancellation and a small microphone in an headset so do not expect jaw dropping condenser mic level performance from any kind of microphone integrated into the headset.Overall this as an excellent product in a budget, there are other options like Razer, Logitech, Steel series etc in this price bracket but if you want the best Competitive gaming experience the cloud stinger 2 is definitely at the top in the under 5000 rupees price bracket of gaming headphones.10/10 Product, Highly recommended!

Good Noise Cancellation headphones it's just, sometimes it changes you voice while cancelling background noise idk if it's OBS studio problem or headphone's but I face it so thought to mention it, but yes it does the work.

The sound quality is a massive upgrade from stinger 1 as it has 50mm drivers. Clear treble and the bass is perfect. Build quality is okay as it is made of plastic it does not provide a premium feel but I really don't care. The fit is somewhat heavy but the cushions are soft and leatherette quality is very good. The mic provides crystal clear sound and noise cancellation is quite outstanding. At this price range it provides a 2 year warranty which is a big up for me along with DTS. Overall it is a perfect headphone at this price range and would definitely recommend over Razer or other headphones at this price range

Perfect value for money , it fits well , the mic is absolutely fantastic at cancelling out noise , comfortable to wear for 4-5 hours straight. After that , ear lobes start hurting for some reason. The volume knob is great tooJust keep this in mind. If you're playing with the headphones knob at 100% but keeping the pc volume lower , then you might hear a slightly higher volume on the left side.Solution : keep the pc volume at 100 and change the volume with the headphone knob. It'll be back to normal. Trust me , when this happened to me I wouldve returned the product if a friend hadn't told me about this solution

Sound quality is decent, but the heavy weight makes it uncomfortable for long usage. Gave me headaches after a short while. Could be better in terms of comfort. So please don't go for it as a Gamer Experience go for Light weight.

So I bought this on December 2022, it was really good, the mic was nice and the actual headphones felt so light and comfortable, after 4 or 5 months, it started degrading, like some pieces came off, but what sucks is that if you keep using the flip to mute mic, it stops working after a certain point, it happened after 7 months.Now the headphone is not usable because the wire has a slight tear but it messes up the entire audio, the mic, everything, you cannot even listen to the someone's voice but only the treble.Just go for stinger 1, atleast it survived for 2 years and I'm a heavy user. The mic breaks if you keep flipping th so just a caution there. Surprisingly the stinger 1 was more durable which is actually shocking..

As expected great one to wear

I owned Stinger 1 for 4 years. Stinger 2 audio is slightly louder, its lighter, the height adjustment dial is clear, it fits on ears tighter, the volume control is a wheel instead of a slider and the mic position and distance is better. Audio is less bass and more clear but some audio is CSGO were too sharp on ears. These are the features they improved in comparison. What they downgraded is the materials and packaging. Packaging from Stinger 1 was better and unboxing experience was much better. Stinger 2 feels like unboxing a Rs500 headphones. In Stinger 1 the steel band ran across from ear to ear, in Stinger 2 it just at the top which makes the ear piece joints feel clunky and fragile in comparison. The wire joint to headphone feels less secured too. The memory foam gets hot on long usage faster than Stinger 1. The splitter provided is shorter and if you have pc cabinet on separate table to show off RGB then you need new longer splitter cable. I had to change back panel setting from mic to line-in then back to mic in Realtek for Windows to recognize the new input device (that could be software bug from Realtek but it never happened before with other mic devices). The mesh under the cloth on drivers dont feel like its metal or at least it feels less strong which means cost cutting there also. So A rank for audio and improving drawback of Stinger 1 but C rank for downgrading build quality.
